Little People Of America Urges Bill Walton To Apologize For Using M-Word

Little People of America is requiring an apology from Bill Walton after he stated the m-word two times on air on Thursday night … calling his usage of the term both “deplorable and inexcusable.”

The org. — considered as the biggest dwarfism support system worldwide — blasted the college basketball analyst in a declaration to TMZ Sports on Friday … less than 24 hours after Walton stated the bad term while transmitting the USC vs. Arizona State video game.

Walton said at halftime while attempting to applaud the arena’s in-game host, “He does not need a little chair because he is a giant in a world full of shriveling m*****s.”

He utilized the word once again when turning his attention towards his broadcast partner, Dave Pasch — who awkwardly chuckled off the entire circumstance.

The org. states Walton must have understood much better — stating “ignorance at this point is simply not an excuse” — and now, they desire him to state he’s sorry.

“Those who use the term m***** or any terminology that further stigmatizes people born with dwarfism are asked to educate themselves to eradicate this word,” LPA authorities stated.

“Little People of America is asking Bill Walton to issue an apology and vow to use appropriate terminology rooted in respect and dignity going forward.”

LPA likewise took objective at Pasch — stating he ought to have knocked Walton’s usage of the term survive on air.

“We hope that in the future Dave Pasch will speak up against disparaging language in solidarity with our organization fighting for disability equity and justice.”
